Continuous and systematic dialog with our internal and external stakeholders is an important element for determining future key issues as part of our business activities.
The most important stakeholder groups include (in alphabetical order) customers, employees and job applicants, environmental associations and civil society organizations, local authorities and public utilities, the political community and the media, shareholders and the capital market, society, and suppliers and business partners. We use a variety of communication channels for this dialog – from (online) conferences to social media platforms. In dialogue with our stakeholders, we listen to their interests and their expectations of EnBW.
